“Good morning.” the deliveryman greeted as the door was opened. “I have a delivery for Samantha Cooper.”
“Of course, come in, please,” the butler directed, allowing him to enter. “You can place it on the table.”
“Thank you, and could you sign here, please?” the deliveryman asked, handing over the receipt while carefully setting down the arrangement. After receiving the signed sheet, he bid farewell and left to continue his deliveries.
“And what’s this?” Samantha asked, noticing the arrangement of white roses shaped like a teddy bear.
“It’s for you, madam, and it came with this,” the butler said, handing her a card and a blue leather case.
